4. -Nice neat notes that are legible and use indentations
when appropriate.
-Example of indent.
-Skip a line between topics
-Don’t skip pages
-Make visuals clear and well drawn.

5. • RED SLIDE: These are notes that are very
important and should be recorded in your
science journal.
• BLACK SLIDE: Pay attention, follow
directions, complete projects as described
and answer required questions neatly.

8. • Review! Wind is the movement of
atmospheric air on a planet, caused by the
different temperatures (sun) and therefore air
pressure differences.

9. • Review! Wind is the movement of
atmospheric air on a planet, caused by the
different temperatures (sun) and therefore air
pressure differences.
– Other causes of the wind are the temperature
differential over the land and over seas, the
topography of the land (hills, mountains, plains,
etc.), and the rotation of the earth (which causes
the Coriolis Force).

of high pressure to areas of low pressure!

22.  The Jet Stream: Any of the high-speed,
high-altitude air currents that circle the
earth in a westerly direction.

23. • Flying times can be significantly shorter
going from California to New York than vice
versa because of the Jet Stream (100+kph)

from the land toward the sea.
– High specific heat of water slowly releases
stored energy from the day during the night
making the water warmer than the land.
